Chapter 788 Heavenreacher (2)

"I'm sorry, Sir Vaan. I don't want to question your intelligence or discredit the efforts you put into this project," Ophelia said before expressing her honest opinion, "However, it just doesn't seem plausible to me."

"I don't see how such a heavy object can be sent into the sea of stars if it only relies purely on the kinetic power inputted during launch. It will be unable to overcome its weight and will be brought down by Pangea's gravity."

"Of course, if the kinetic power of the launch was so high that it could send the carrier into the sea of stars, I believe such launching power would be able to slay even Divine Beings."

"I doubt any passenger will be able to survive under such pressure. No, they'll probably die instantly upon launch if this space launcher had such kinetic power generation," Ophelia figured.

"It's just as you say, Lady Ophelia," Vaan calmly acknowledged her point before saying, "If the space launcher is only relying on pure kinetic energy to send people into the sea of stars, that is."

"So, there's more to it then?" Ophelia wondered thoughtfully.

Vaan nodded and said, "That space launcher alone will not be enough to send people into the sea of stars. That's why we are also working on creating a void tunnel system."

"A void tunnel system?" Ophelia raised her eyebrow in interest.

"That's right, a void tunnel system that would generate a pillar of void space between the space launch and the sea of stars via magic. You should have already seen the floating black cubes above the magic tower, Lady Ophelia," Vaan mentioned.

"In total, there will be 60,000 of them aligned between the space launcher and the sea of stars when the void tunnel system is online. It will create a zero-gravity vacuum space for the carriers to pass through."

"Naturally, the carrier will not lose any travel speed getting launched through such an environment. It'll be like getting pushed through deep space," Vaan stated.

"Supreme Leader, I've recalled that the void tunnel system was completed recently. It just hasn't entered the testing phase since the communication and docking systems on the other end aren't ready yet," Lord Narvim informed.

Of course, he didn't see a reason not to tag along with the tour, considering he had ample knowledge of the relevant projects.

Furthermore, the magic tower's interior was so spacious that even dragons like him could enter without feeling cramped. After all, it was designed to accommodate the large size of red dragons.

"Oh?" Vaan uttered with surprise.

The noble red dragons were indeed skilled and knowledgeable.

However, given the timeframe and progress involved, they must be working like slaves to achieve so much.

Nevertheless, Ophelia also noticed another point.

If the void tunnel system did work as intended, she couldn't imagine how much mana would be required to generate such a large zero-gravity vacuum space for even a few seconds.

"The mana consumption for maintaining the void tunnel system must be enormous, right? If this space launcher is intended to be used frequently, the mana consumption would be even greater. Wouldn't the Black Rose Kingdom run out of mana quickly?" Ophelia inquired.

"Not at all, Lady Ophelia," Vaan shook his head and said, "There's a near-limitless amount of mana lying in the upper sky, untapped until now. However, it will be used to support everything in this country, ranging from the void tunnel system to the witches' daily needs."

"And how do you intend to harvest all that mana in such large quantity, Sir Vaan?" Ophelia asked.

Vaan's bold claim had attracted her strong curiosity.

"That's what the large magic tower is for; it's not just a space launcher. Actually, the void tunnel system is only one part of a dual system," Vaan casually explained.

"When the void tunnel system is offline, the mana gathering system will be activated to channel the abundant mana from the upper sky into the magic tower's core mana storage."

"During this process, the void tunnel system will be recharged to maintain its functions," Vaan stated.

After Ophelia finally saw the full picture, she was greatly amazed.

The entire project had been thoroughly planned, and there didn't seem to be a single flaw in it.

She couldn't help but look forward to the day of its full completion.

"Does this future wonder have a name?"

"Heavenreacher."
